Lot Description

1805 Draped Bust Dime. JR-2. Rarity-1. 4 Berries. VF-25 (NGC). The obverse of this Draped Bust dime is pale gold throughout with lilac and violet toning in the protected areas, while the reverse is chiefly deep steel-gray with lilac highlights. The design elements are bold for the grade, the surfaces nicely preserved with no marks of consequence. The 1805 is considered the most available of the Draped Bust dime issues, and the more plentiful JR-2 4 Berries variety is often selected to represent the type in advanced collections. Provenance: From our ANA Auction of August 2016, lot 141. PCGS# 38769. NGC ID: 236S. Click here for certification details from NGC.
